When you log into Apidog via the web app, navigate to a project, and attempt to send a request to an endpoint, you might face Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) restrictions. To help users overcome this challenge, Apidog offers several types of request proxy agents:
Request Proxy
Description
Cloud Agent
No installation required
Supports sending HTTPS requests
Requires connection to the Apidog cloud
Cannot access private or local network environments
Restricted by the network environment of the deployment server, possibly unable to access local network environments
To choose which request proxy agent to use, go to theRequest Proxysection located at the bottom right of the project page. By default, the system selectsAutomode. In this mode, if the browser extension is installed, it will be used to send requests. If not, the cloud agent will be employed for sending requests.
